You can pretty much guarantee that anytime someone references the First Amendment in an argument, they’re a fucking moron who has no clue what the First Amendment is.

Are you familiar with the concept of conscientious objection?

No joke, I had a routine check-up scheduled at the doctor today. They took my blood pressure. It was fucking 160.

Context is incredibly important in a discussion; have you ever said “epic” and meant something other than a long-form poem?

...I’ll wait.

Their response is limited to “Wow, so that guy won.” Not “Why did they elect this person? He’s not the right person for the job.”

The whole DNC scene was a tabloid in its larval stages, from Wasserman-Schultz to Weiner to Podesta. Not one of them respected Clinton or her message, and they became liabilities in turn.

This is the worst kind of argumentation. You see those Johnson voters? The ones that quadrupled Stein’s turnout in those states? They weren’t leaning Clinton. If anything, they siphoned off traditionally Republican-leaning voters. They weren’t disaffected Bernie Bros.

Fifty-eight percent of white Americans voters,

Lol, you don’t even own a non-grey account.

Totally agree. I think Liberals need to take a long look in the mirror and think about one thing, arrogance. They have been so cocky and arrogant about this election cycle or the last two or three. It jumped up and bit them in the ass in a huge way last night.

Spoiler alert: it’s not going to get better for them. It’s been downhill for them since the Reagan administration, but they keep voting for the folks that ship their jobs overseas, bankrupt their pensions, pull their social safety nets, etc. Asking for sympathy while shooting yourself in the foot really only…

“It can be hard to put your finger on exactly what you fear most about the rise of Donald Trump: the racism? The sexism? The xenophobia? The profoundly dangerous lack of judgment?”

Call me crazy, but acting as if the democrats had the right plan/strategy/candidate but just got screwed by forces out of their control is a terrible terrible strategy that might lead to a second repub term in 2020.

Right, that’s the libertarian platform. Thanks for the clarification

I guess I don’t understand his platform that well, but I thought he took votes more from the Repubs than from Dems?

this is bargaining.

Look at the data so far. Gary Johnson got WAY more votes than Jill Stein. That shows that our country is more conservative than you think.

We (progressives) need to become better conversationalists. We have to convince people instead of “shaming” them or labeling them as “bigots”. Calling someone a bigot does not…

But she lost a lot of places Obama carried 4 years ago. How many racists do you think there are that would vote for a black man, but not a white woman?

“...Speaks For All of Us”

Thanks for the canned response, it was full of selective information and very deceptive phrasing.
